Animation supports carers for people with dementia

Our 2017 ‘Catalysts for Change’ projects submitted their final reports earlier this year. In addition to their written report, one of our projects created a magnificent animation.

The project – “Working together to promote resilience and enhance informal carers’ well-being in Tweeddale” developed the animation to support the carers of people with dementia.

The animation shows how to access services from the very beginning, before a diagnosis has been made, and who can provide additional support throughout. It was voiced over by Jacqui Pickard and Kim Linge who have both experienced caring for a loved one with dementia and who were central to the project.

It is only four minutes long and worth every second. The video can be watched below:

Please share with anyone who may be interested; from informal carers to dementia specialists.
